I&#39;ll certainly need to check them out!<br /><br />Vanessa, We love &quot;I Wanna Iguana&quot;! We just read it during pet week last month, I have to renew it at the library because the kids loved it so much! I can&#39;t wait to share Plantzilla, because I&#39;m sure they are going to love it, too!Ayn Colshhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/13798516846017108647noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1139267038363003129.post-34316976500137182202010-02-15T06:53:23.122-05:002010-02-15T06:53:23.122-05:00I love the book &quot;I Wanna Iguana&quot;, it fit...I love the book &quot;I Wanna Iguana&quot;, it fits right in this genre. It is illustrated by Catrow as is Plantzilla. It&#39;s a hilarious story of a little boy who write his mother little notes trying to convince her to let him have an iguana.Vanessahttp://www.pre-kpages.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1139267038363003129.post-88706719599903095682010-02-14T20:32:19.891-05:002010-02-14T20:32:19.891-05:00I love the Toot &amp; Puddle books. Do you know T...I love the Toot &amp; Puddle books. Do you know The Jolly Postman by Janet &amp; Allan Ahlberg? It&#39;s a very sweet little book. The best thing about it are the letters that are inside envelopes inside the book and actually come out to read. It&#39;s a great book for first grade but if your preschoolers are familiar with a few fairy tales then they might enjoy it.Kathttp://www.blogger.com/profile/16564087494111771100noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1139267038363003129.post-56100904025482022082010-02-14T15:13:36.810-05:002010-02-14T15:13:36.810-05:00I&#39;m going to have to check these books out.

We have journals, but most of the kids fill them up and take them home before I even get to see them! I don&#39;t know if that&#39;s good or bad . . .<br /><br />Happy Valentine&#39;s Day to you too!Teacher Tomhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/14606781724784785338noreply@blogger.com
